GOLD RIVER, Calif. -- Sacramento State got wins from all six singles positions in the lineup on the way to a 6-1 victory over Eastern Washington in a Big Sky Conference men's tennis match Tuesday afternoon at the Spare Time Indoor Tennis Center.

With the win, the Hornets improved to 7-11 overall, 4-2 in the Big Sky, and 5-3 on their current nine-match homestand. The homestand ends on Thursday with a matchup against first-place Weber State at 10 a.m. Sacramento State now sits all alone in fifth place in the Big Sky standings, and just one game back of second place.

Eastern Washington dropped to 6-9 overall and 2-3 in the Big Sky with the loss.
